<wonder why all these blowing up subprime lenders are being swallowed by large Wall street firms. >

I don't quite see it that way. Subprimers are being shut down, portfolios sold off, and credit conditions tightened a lot. Subject of my blog tomorrow, stayed tuned.

I hardly think it would be for "integrity" -- more like to keep the game going as long as possible.

'A silent bailout in place, for the sake of integrity
of the dark matter? M3 growth rates certainly indicate the
Fed intends to bail out housing somehow.'

Can they keep monetizing the back end, lower fed funds and keep the those toxic loan programs in place even as labor pressures from a tight labor market add to inflationary pressures?

Will the fed prefer to save the dollar or housing? Can't do both and if they do plug the holes it is only a temporary fix anyway IMHO..
